Self-storage tips for the holidays

With the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, it’s easy to lose track of what you currently have inside your storage unit.

It’s also easy to quickly fill up your unit (or house, for that matter) with things like Christmas decorations, gifts and more.

Here are some helpful self-storage tips to get you through the holidays:

Create an “open first” box: This box should have everything you need at the start of the holiday season. Decorations. Gift wrapping. Cards. Recipes. That way, you’ll know which box to pull out to kick off the holidays.

Invest in a tree bag: The original box your Christmas tree came in is probably old and beat up. Tree bags are large enough to fit any size tree. They’re easy to carry (like a giant duffel bag), tough (so they won’t rip) and waterproof.

Wrap Christmas lights around a coffee can: Untangling lights can test even Santa’s patience. If you wrap them around a circular can, there’s no chance the wires will get twisted. It also makes unwrapping them a snap.

Make a list: If you’re creating gift lists and recipe lists, you might as well draft a self-storage list. You can divide it into multiple categories. For example, “things to bring home”, “things to store” and “new items for the storage unit.”
